We report the first angle-resolved photoemission measurement of the wave-vector dependent plasmon satellite structure of a three-dimensional solid, crystalline silicon. In sharp contrast to nanomaterials, which typically exhibit strongly wave-vector dependent, low-energy plasmons, the large plasmon energy of silicon facilitates the search for a plasmaron state consisting of resonantly bound holes and plasmons and its distinction from a weakly interacting plasmon-hole pair. Employing a first-principles theory, which is based on a cumulant expansion of the one-electron Greens function and contains significant electron correlation effects, we obtain good agreement with the measured photoemission spectrum for the wave-vector dependent dispersion of the satellite feature, but without observing the existence of plasmarons in the calculations.

The ability to manipulate plasmons is driving new developments in electronics, optics, sensing, energy, and medicine. Despite the massive momentum of experimental research in this direction, a predictive quantum-mechanical framework for describing el
ectron-plasmon interactions in real materials is still missing. Here, starting from a many-body Greens function approach, we develop an ab initio approach for investigating electron-plasmon coupling in solids. As a first demonstration of this methodology, we show that electron-plasmon scattering is the primary mechanism for the cooling of hot carriers in doped silicon, it is key to explain measured electron mobilities at high doping, and it leads to a quantum zero-point renormalization of the band gap in agreement with experiment.
The role of reduced dimensionality and of the surface on electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling in silicon nanowires is determined from first principles. Surface termination and chemistry is found to have a relatively small influence, whereas reduced dimens
ionality fundamentally alters the behavior of deformation potentials. As a consequence, electron coupling to breathing modes emerges that cannot be described by conventional treatments of e-ph coupling. The consequences for physical properties such as scattering lengths and mobilities are significant: the mobilities for [110] grown wires are 6 times larger than those for [100] wires, an effect that cannot be predicted without the form we find for Si nanowire deformation potentials.
Vacancy centers in diamond have proven to be a viable solid-state platform for quantum coherent opto-electronic applications. Among the variety of vacancy centers, silicon-vacancy (SiV) centers have recently attracted much attention as an inversion-s
ymmetric system that is less susceptible to electron-phonon interactions. Nevertheless, phonon-mediated processes still degrade the coherent properties of SiV centers, however characterizing their electron-phonon coupling is extremely challenging due to their weak spectroscopic signatures and remains an open experimental problem. In this paper we theoretically investigate signatures of electron-phonon coupling in simulated linear and nonlinear spectra of SiV centers. We demonstrate how even extremely weak electron-phonon interactions, such as in SiV centers, may be completely characterized via nonlinear spectroscopic techniques and even resolved between different fine-structure transitions.
We report first-principles calculations of acoustic surface plasmons on the (0001) surface of Be, as obtained in the random-phase approximation of many-body theory. The energy dispersion of these collective excitations has been obtained along two sym
metry directions. Our results show a considerable anisotropy of acoustic surface plasmons, and underline the capability of experimental measurements of these plasmons to {it map} the electron-hole excitation spectrum of the quasi two-dimensional Shockley surface state band that is present on the Be(0001) surface.
We report the observation of photo-induced plasmon-phonon coupled modes in the group IV-VI semiconductor PbTe using Fourier-transform inelastic X-ray scattering at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). We measure the near-zone-center dispersion of
the heavily screened longitudinal optical (LO) phonon branch as extracted from differential changes in x-ray diffuse scattering intensity following above band gap photoexcitation.
